	I'm not seeing that. I'm seeing it placed into the headers/
subdir of SRPMS, which doesnt really help me, since I dont know
how to find the SRPMS subdir (I don't specify them seperately
atm... I suppose I could, but I'm not sure how to handle old
non-src having yum repos). I would like to see the placement
of the RPMS/ and SRPMS dirs standardized (or pointed at by
some standard metadata file or whatever...). Basically, just
looking for a way to specify one url and be able to reliably
find src and bin.

	Having a seperate repo type for yum-src seems a bit
odd as well. But I guess thats more inline with the way yum
does it with seperate repos for src and bin packages.
